Monthly MIS pack

P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, KPIs and compliance status in one workbook — the pack a founder or a board can read in ten minutes.

One workbook, closed the same way every month. The KPI sheet computes from the P&L and balance sheet rather than asking you to key numbers twice, which is where most in-house packs start disagreeing with themselves.

The compliance sheet sits inside the pack deliberately. A month-end review that covers the numbers but not the filings is half a review.

What is inside

Every sheet and what it holds, so you can tell whether it fits before you download it.

How to use it

Work in sheet order: P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, then let the KPI sheet calculate. Fill the compliance status last, from your own filing records rather than from memory.

Talk it through with a CA

Thirty minutes on one problem — a cash gap you can’t explain, a notice you don’t understand, books that stopped making sense. You’ll leave with a straight answer and the next two steps. No charge, and no obligation to work with us afterwards.
